The general rule when we report on polling that shows a result which readers might not like is that we will get a lot of comments saying things like “fake poll” or “didn’t poll me”. So, for context, note that this is the same opinion poll which, over the weekend, showed that 83% of the […]
There are a couple of interesting things about this story, and what they might tell us about Ireland. By far the most interesting thing, though, is how the numbers break down.

The second, obviously, is the question of how long this discrimination on the basis of […]
It’s difficult to know what to think about this one: On the one hand, fewer organisations have had a more abysmal record in the pandemic than the World Health Organisation. First, they did not recognise the danger of the virus. Then, they actively helped China play down the danger of the virus. Then, they studiously […]
Parents are encouraged to discuss the issue and make efforts to resolve it.
